Yukari, a seemingly ordinary and unremarkable individual, possesses a certain monotony that sets him apart from others. He fails to capture the attention or provoke bullying, blending into the background of his lower-middle-class upbringing. However, his heart is entwined with Misaki, the epitome of popularity and allure within their school. Despite the insurmountable obstacle of their age difference—he is just 15, with only one year remaining until he receives his government-assigned marriage partner—Yukari finds himself unable to resist the allure of love.

Amidst the confines of societal expectations and the looming pressure of tradition, Yukari's desire to express his feelings to Misaki grows stronger. However, his hesitance is fueled by the fear of defying the law and the consequences that await him. Yet, his sickly classmate, Ririna, possesses an unwavering belief in the power of love and relentlessly teases him, encouraging him to confess his true emotions.

As Yukari navigates the delicate balance between his desires and the expectations of his society, he confronts the complexities of love, loyalty, and the clash between tradition and personal aspirations. Through Ririna's persistent prodding and the support of his friends, he begins to unravel the layers of his own emotions and discover the courage to embrace the possibility of a love that transcends societal norms.
